IPC: C07C7/11
Filed: 2007-03-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of separating methane and carbon dioxide from biogas and to a device for carrying out the method. These are intended for purifying biogas, wherein carbon dioxide is separated off from the biogas. Starting from the disadvantages of the known prior art, a method is intended to be provided which is distinguished by an energetically favourable mode of operation. For this the solution proposed is that the biogas is passed under atmospheric pressure and standard temperature into the absorption column, wherein while the biogas ascends through the packed bed, which preferably has a surface area of 600 to 1200 m2/m3 and at a space velocity of 5 to 40 Nm3/m3h, carbon dioxide present in the biogas is bound in the wash liquid by chemosorption. The purified methane gas is taken off at the top of the absorption column at a defined flow velocity. Carbon dioxide bound in the wash liquid is removed by desorption at a relatively high pressure of 2 to 30 bar and a temperature of at least 120°C. Biogas may be separated particularly economically into methane and CO2 by the suggested procedure.

Title: Efficient implementation to perform iterative decoding with large iteration counts
Inventor: SCARPA CARL
IPC: H03M13/00
Filed: 2008-03-28
Abstract: Systems and methods are presented to improve the performance of a constant bit rate iterative decoder by providing elastic buffering, while utilizing a relatively simple decoder architecture capable of maintaining a fixed number of iterations of a lower value. An LDPC decoder can be designed to support less than the maximum possible number of iterations, and can be mated to elastic input and output buffers If a given code block, or succession of code blocks, requires the maximum number of iterations for decoding, the decoder can run at such maximum number of iterations and the elastic input buffer can hold code blocks waiting to be processed so as to maintain a constant input rate Alternatively, if one or more code blocks requires less than the nominal number of iterations, the output buffer can store those code blocks so as to preserve a constant output rate.

Abstract: The three-dimensional jigsaw is a toy made up of several spherical surfaces, preferably 4 spherical surfaces of different diameters, which are situated one inside the other and made up of individual elements, which are mutually joined in such a way that they form an individual spherical surface.  The toy's final shape is achieved by joining the housing (3), element (2), and movable elements which are placed within the housing. Element (2) is a spherical segment made up of two neighboring spherical segments (4) of the top half of the sphere and two neighboring segments (4) of the bottom half of the sphere which are mutually shifted by 45°, i.e. the width of one segment of the sphere.  Inside the housing (3) there are smaller diameter spheres (5), (6) and (7) with clearance between them, thereby enabling the rotation of each individual spheres within the other in all possible directions. Spheres (5) and (6), depending on the method of realizing the invention, consist of 4 elements or 2 elements, while the smallest diameter sphere essentially makes up an orb (7) considering the fact that it regularly consists of two full elements (8) and (8') (pictures 8, 9 and 10).
